M. Vacha et al., SITE-DIRECTED STUDY OF EXCITED ENERGY-TRANSFER IN PHOTOSYNTHETIC ANTENNA BY HOLE-BURNING IN FLUORESCENCE-SPECTRA, Journal of luminescence, 60-1, 1994, pp. 523-526
High spectral selectivity of hole burning in fluorescence spectra was
used to study excited energy transfer in the CP 43 chlorophyll-protein
complex of core antenna of photosystem II of Synechococcus. The obser
ved energy transfer time is 7.6 +/- 1.1 ps. The phenomenon of laser-in
duced hole filling was studied and explained in terms of energy transf
er within the CP 43 complex.
